Pregnant Strictly Come Dancing star Dianne Buswell impressed fans as she flaunted her rapidly growing baby bump during Sunday night’s show, accompanied by a lighthearted comment about her changing silhouette.
This week, Dianne made a heartfelt return to the dance floor at Blackpool’s iconic Tower Ballroom, performing two memorable routines. Her first dance featured herself alongside fellow professional dancers and four former finalists—Ashley Roberts, Danny Mac, Jay McGuiness, and Layton Williams—who made a special comeback, marking a milestone for the series.
In her second routine, Dianne took center stage to perform with her baby bump as Lewis Capaldi delivered a live rendition of a new song, adding emotional depth to the evening’s entertainment.
